The company has teased its plans to look beyond phones, and for that it already has the XR headset available in the market for select regions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">And soon, it will be lining up alongside the Meta Ray Ban smart glasses with its own version. Samsung has confirmed the product will be launching this year without giving us more details about its timeline.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\"><strong>Samsung AR Glasses With AI: What To Expect<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The company has been quoted during a recent earnings call, where one of its executives said, they plan to deliver rich, multimodal AI experiences with its next-gen AR glasses. This doesn\u2019t say if the Samsung AR glasses will come equipped with a display but AI experiences mean Google will have a big say on how this product shapes up and how it works.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Samsung\u2019s first AR glasses are not likely to feature a built-in display and function more as a secondary paired device with a phone. You will be able to record videos, take pictures, listen to music and even make calls. The Android XR platform could be powering this Samsung device which should have Gemini available out of the box and other apps from the Android ecosystem work seamlessly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The new launch timeline for the Samsung AR Glasses is exciting and it seems the company is getting closer to a production-ready model that is likely to fit into the Galaxy ecosystem for the brand.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Talking about something closer to next month, Samsung could go one step further with a privacy-focused display shield expected to be offered on the Galaxy S26 Ultra when it launches soon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">\u201cSamsung will soon unveil a new layer of privacy to shield your phone from shoulder surfing wherever you go. You\u2019ll have the space to check your messages or enter a password on public transit without thinking twice about who might be watching&#8221;. This is a teaser to the privacy feature that we have heard about with various Galaxy S26 Ultra leaks in the last few weeks. <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-18814a1d8226d353 artnws newsletter\">\n<p>Handpicked stories, in your inbox<\/p>\n<p>A newsletter with the best of our journalism<\/p>\n<p><input type=\"text\" placeholder=\"Enter Your Email\" class=\"jsx-18814a1d8226d353 artnwinpt\" value=\"\"\/><button class=\"jsx-18814a1d8226d353 subscrbe newsletter\">submit<\/button><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-279370f99b75303e jsx-3631618547 atbtlink Location\"><span>Location :<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Seoul, South Korea<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-279370f99b75303e jsx-3631618547 atbtlink fp\"><span>First Published:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"rs\">\n<p>January 30, 2026, 12:41 IST<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-279370f99b75303e jsx-3631618547 brdcrmb\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/\">News<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/tech\/\">tech<\/a>  <span class=\"brdout\"> Samsung Confirms AR Glass Launch Plans For 2026 Powered By Android And AI<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"coral-wrap\" class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f \">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coral-cont\">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coltoptxt\">Disclaimer: Comments reflect users\u2019 views, not News18\u2019s.
